After a 12-year hiatus, Street Fighter IV brings the World Warriors' 2D fighting madness into 3D, while introducing the new Focus Attack system to pull off cinematic-style Ultra Combos and command throws with skill! Abel, C. Viper, Rufus, El Fuerte, Seth, and Gouken enter as newcomers, while Cammy, Dan, Fei-Long, Gen, Rose, and Sakura make their return. The console version introduced eight additional characters for a total of 25 playable fighters, as well as full English and Japanese voice acting, a first for the series.
This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Is the name region swap on the PS3 version dependent on the console region or the system language?
Similar to previous Street Fighter titles, some of the characters have different names in the Japanese version. In the PlayStation 3 version, if the Japanese version is played on a console from another region, the international names are used, and vice versa.
The title screen layout is changed in the Windows version.

The Windows version featured online play via Games for Windows Live, with built-in voice chat and PC-exclusive achievements, as well as higher resolutions and three new selectable visual styles ("Ink", "Watercolor", and "Posterize").
The Xbox 360 and PS3 versions support custom soundtracks, though the PS3 version supports it only in offline play.
